Software Development

Our talented team design software for a range of systems from large, distributed systems with strict up-time requirements, to small individual software components and apps. We use various languages and methodologies, ensuring technologies are matched to our customers’ needs.

Our clients benefit from the experience we possess in all phases of analysis and design, from requirements capture through to detailed design, covering a range of methodologies and tools, including waterfall, agile and UML.

We are an adaptable, agile organisation and have experience of many different platforms. Our knowledgeable staff pride themselves in being able to analyse and design systems using the best available options. Core experience at Nicander includes desktop and server hardware systems and virtual systems using many different operating platforms.

Databases are at the heart of the systems we provide to our international clients. Choosing the best solution requires significant capability to match client requirements against database capabilities. Our experience covers a range of enterprise class database technologies, including relational databases such as MS SQL Server, Azure SQL Database, Oracle, MySQL and Postgres to more specialised NoSQL databases such as MongoDB, Elasticsearch and Cosmos.

Real Time – The persistence of real-time information and the effective storage of high throughput data is a key feature of any ITS system. From fault information to individual vehicle data, Nicander have experience of designing, implementing and delivering systems for processing real-time information in a live control room environment where decision making needs to be consistent, fast and effective.

Spatial Information – With maps being a key feature in any ITS systems, we have extensive knowledge in storing spatial information and providing spatial solutions to systems. In previous projects this includes incorporating real-time maps, modelling spatial road networks, route finding and integration of third-party geospatial information.

Reporting – Visualisation of the stored information is a key requirement from our customers. Our collaborative approach and detailed experience ensures we deliver the right reports and dashboard representation to meet client operational and business needs.
